Daniel Bryan returns to SmackDown LIVE

Two weeks ago, SmackDown LIVE General Manager Daniel Bryan ventured into enemy territory on his own. Bryan
went to Raw attempting extend the olive branch to Team Red and General Manager Kurt Angle, making it clear
that he did not agree with SmackDown LIVE Commissioner Shane McMahon’s decision to place Raw under siege.
Angle, who did not react well to Bryan’s offered apology, provided The “Yes!” Man a measure of protection,
keeping Team Blue’s GM in his office rather than have him walk through an arena filled with Raw Superstars
eager for retribution. But Angle’s office turned out to be anything but a safe haven for Bryan,
as Kane viciously attacked him.

Charlotte Flair will get another opportunity at the SmackDown Women’s Championship tonight on
SmackDown LIVE when she challenges Natalya in her hometown of Charlotte, N.C.
In their last encounter for the title at WWE Hell in a Cell, The Queen had the champion on the
ropes and looked to be on the verge of taking her first SmackDown Women’s Championship. However,
a desperate Natalya grabbed a steel chair and used it to batter Charlotte’s knee in a
jaw-dropping attack.
In the meantime, the champion has been focused on her impending Champion vs. Champion battle with
Raw Women’s Champion Alexa Bliss at Survivor Series, while The Queen qualified for Team SmackDown
in the Women’s 5-on-5 Traditional Survivor Series Match. However, this match has the potential to
change Survivor Series, as a Charlotte victory over Natalya would result in The Queen facing Bliss
in Houston. The Raw Women’s Champion stated last night that she’ll be keeping a close eye on the
match, and may even make her way up to Charlotte to see her Survivor Series opponent in person.

The New Day face Kevin Owens & Sami Zayn tonight on SmackDown LIVE

A huge tag team battle has been set for tonight’s SmackDown LIVE, as The New Day will take on Kevin
Owens & Sami Zayn.
The fast-escalating rivalry between the two factions started in the United Kingdom when Kofi Kingston,
Big E & Xavier Woods were basking in their successful raid of Monday Night Raw with SmackDown LIVE
Commissioner Shane McMahon, only for Owens & Zayn to hit the scene and ruin the fun. To settle the score,
McMahon made a singles match between Kingston and Zayn, which The Dreadlocked Dynamo won. After the bell,
KO pounced on Kingston and pummeled him until Woods and Big E ran him off.
